"the criminalization of drugs is because the majority of the People see it as a substance harmful"
The tyranny of the majority is the reason we have a Republic.
The majority were in on the witch hunts of old, but it did
not make it right. And, there is little difference between
the witch hunts and the War on Drugs. Except, today the
false doctrine emanates from a purported secular state. It
has become a state mandated heretical religion enforced by
DEAmen and preached by a Czar.
Bear in mind this sacred principle, that
though the will of the majority is in all cases to prevail,
that will to be rightful must be reasonable;
that the minority possess their equal rights,
which equal law must protect,
and to violate would be oppression." -Thomas Jefferson
What is reasonable about requiring the submission of the
individual's will in the determination of the substance
from which he is made through the process of ingestion as
long as there is no harm to any other?
If not them who? Do you have some devine breathing creature that never makes mistakes to decide for us the question of "harm"?
Or perhaps are the People, who are most effected, and thus able to judge the harm, and have the most to lose by its misapplication, the best ones to decide?
Again I pose to you, "If not the People, then who?"
I think it would be healthy for you to make sure you read my #247 to tpaine. There's a lot that carries over for you.
Sweet dreams.
